I have been clearing about 3/4 of an acre to start a garden. It has been let go for 20 years. I have been pulling trees and stumps out with a Farmall 140 and an International 464 diesel. The 140 does great pulling "140 size" material from the fast hitch drawbar. However, the 464 doesn't do quite as well as I would like it to. It has plenty of power, but seems to lose traction quickly. My dad has always told me to pull from the front bumper on the 464 (and I understand this negates rollover dangers), but I think I would do better if I pulled stumps from the drawbar, as I believe it will add traction. By the way, when I pull in reverse, I always have a bush hog hooked up for weight, but it doesn't appear to help very much. Also, these stumps are mainly privets between 4 and 12 inches across at the base. Any advice will be appreciated!
